So I have two ideas, and one involves something people might call a ‘fetish’ (though I don’t consider it to be one.)

Huikyeong February 10th, 2018 8:19 PM

journey fics and stuff
 
Hey! I originally come from another forum to write fanfics and I am trying to get back into it. So if my questions are familiar, that's why. Plus I have others I haven't asked.

So um years ago there was this fic I saw called Max's New Adventures to where Max goes on his journey and I thought it was a cool fic. At first it sparked the idea of Jupiter going on a journey after leaving Team Galactic but that failed. Now reeading it, plus watching the DP and unova anime episodes, it kinda sparked an idea of Paul going on a journey to Unova to compete in the Unova league plus trying to defeat his rival, Trip (yes that Trip lol) plus has run ins with Team Plasma (aka Team Pathetic as he calls them)

However I'm not working with a newbie trainer like say... Max, so how can I go about this?

Thanks :)

Can you explain your two ideas a bit more, and why which one you think one of your ideas would considered that?

To be honest anything can be a fetish but lets not go there haha

Basically one is a Choose Your Own Adventure thing where people vote on what happens next
Other is a transformation-based story

Astinus February 11th, 2018 7:13 AM

If it puts your mind at ease, the Pokemon fandom has written a lot of transformation-based stories. The genre is (was?) known as Pokémorphs, where people are turned into Pokemon to varying degrees of success. I don't know how popular those stories are now, since it seems like authors tend to drift more to Mystery Dungeon for that. But I'm just saying that transformation-based stories aren't going to be looked down upon just because they deal with transformation.

What are your ideas about? So you want to write a transformation-based story. Who are the characters? What's the problem they'll be going through? What are you going to be exploring in this story?

Pure Essence February 11th, 2018 7:18 AM

So basically I need to figure out a few things but the basic plot is an Eevee somehow evolves it’s trainer into an evolution of it

I'm confused what you meant by that? You mean the trainer transforming into one of Eevee's evolutions?

As for your Choose your Adventure idea, can you give more details about it? I know before there were a few of those fics popped up here.

Hi there! You mentioned wanting this thread be moved here, which is totally fine!

As for your idea, Trip and Paul interacting does sound like a very fun idea. I take you worried about Paul streamrolling the beginning gyms with him being an experienced trainer? I can see Paul getting ahead of himself and a few of the Unova gym leaders giving him a hard time. I think the premise you have here sounds fun, just make sure you have Paul' characterization developed naturally.

In this idea most of the characters give Paul a hard time, even Colress ;p

Anyway my original idea was that Paul travels to Unova to enter the unova league and meets a girl who helps him through the process, however, because of her free spirit personality and that she doesn’t most things seriously, he had no interest in communicating with her. That and because she thought he was a rookie trainer due to him having no unova badges. However after overhearing that this annoying trainer was a battle tower boss trainer from Black City and the leader of her local battle club, he quietly follows her to watch her battles.

Of course he runs in with Team Plasma, like I kinda wanted to pull some events from the game like Ghestis trying to control Kyurem again and freezing half of Unova in which the cast tries to stop him in which Paul and Ghestis have a battle.

I guess one question I have in my mind is, is it reasonable for a character to catch a legendary Pokemon? Like in the middle I had the idea that Paul would capture either a Cobalion or a Terrkion but I'm not sure if that's reasonable. Please help ><;

For the first yeah
For the second, a trainer starts his journey and what evens happen next are based on by comments

Forgive me for only focusing on this part of your posts, but my mind isn't working that great right now. To answer that question, since you're working in the canon of the anime, I don't think you can get away with Paul catching a legendary Pokemon. The anime treats legendary Pokemon like they're big deals. They have so much power, and treating them like regular Pokemon can be terrible for the world. All the times I can think of where legendary Pokemon were captured for one reason or another were all times where the world was nearly destroyed.

You can have Cobalion or Terrakion working alongside Paul if their goals align. But actually having Paul capture them in Pokeballs and using them wouldn't work that well in the anime canon.

With the CYOA story, you can check out the only one that I've seen that was really successful. Seeing how Cutlerine handled it can give you some idea of how your thread can go, and how you can handle the different ways readers can take your story.

Okay, and also. Ash really needs to get a legendary to hold the audience. This could be just a UB and that would be fine, but just please have him catch the legend.

Off topic, that fic was good!

On topic: I am also working with the game world as well so I am kinda mixing them together. Which is why I asked.

semi April 1st, 2018 9:14 AM

Hello!

I've very recently come up with this idea for a fic. I'm down with a first chapter, and specifics on where exactly I want my plot to go in the next few chapters or so. My major issue so far is naming the story - and why is this? Well, I don't know exactly what the story's main focus will be. These are my two options:
1. thorough exploration of the Pokémon science which deals with gifting humans with the ability to use Pokémon moves via experimentation
2. part of Lysandre's life, up until x/y game plot or near it

Actually, any additional suggestions are welcome.

If I choose to go with option 2, I'm certain that the title of the story will be A Beautiful World, or something along those lines. Any feedback on the subject would be highly appreciate, as I hope to post the first chapter as soon as possible, with a finalised title and an idea of where my story will continue once Lysandre's laboratory era is up.

[For a basic summary, open spoiler.]
Spoiler:
Prior to his rise to fame, Lysandre worked as a lab assistant in a berry laboratory in Jubilife City. This research facility, known as Genetic Engineering Laboratory of Sinnoh, specializes in genetically modifying berries to produce improved berry crops. In an underground floor of the lab’s facility, research of genetic engineering of Pokémon is effectuated in secret, a project aiming to obtain enough data to decode Pokémon genetics related to battle moves and manipulate them. When Lysandre is exposed to the existence of the hidden facility, he is deeply infatuated and invests much of his time into researching more and more, although his research partner Kaien’s interest in the project starts to decline after several failed attempts to further their research. Eventually, la di da di da [plot points I ought not to share at this point]

Bay April 1st, 2018 4:32 PM

Hm, after checking your summary sounds like Lysandre will still be the main focus of the story, so I would definitely go "A Beautiful World" there! Only thing is maybe someone might take that title for a Lysandre fic, but then again "A Beautiful World" fits him very well.

Spoiler:
One quick musing I want to say is how come Lysandre gets entangled in an experiment with Pokemon moves? Would that relate to Mega Evolution? If this question is one of the plot points you don't want to reveal, then I understand.

semi April 1st, 2018 11:22 PM

Agreed with that. It is likely that I will not go with that title after all. Anyhow, thank you for the advice! It was much needed and I'm glad for it :^

Spoiler:
Since this occurs ten years or so before canon Lysandre is introduced, I would think that he is not yet aware of mega evolution (if I do choose to make this fic about his life as you suggested, he would eventually meet professor Sychamore, who would expose him to it? I feel like that makes sense, as far as game canon goes.) The reason Lysandre would get involved in anything would be for his ideals, I would think.
Since his canon ideals are the perfect preservation of nature, he would have to experience something that will change the way he wishes to manifest his ideal, hence something would have to go horribly wrong in his experimentation in the story >:)

ilikecatsanddogs March 30th, 2019 9:42 AM

Hello!

I'm rather new to writing pokemon fanfic (in other words, this is my first) and I was hoping for some thoughts on an idea.

So, the basic premise is that an eleven-year-old boy from a world where pokemon don't exist (not just that they don't have pokemon - the entire concept doesn't exist, even in games) suddenly ends up in the pokemon world, Hoenn to be exact. He finds out that the pokemon world has legendaries that could possibly help him find a way back home (Jirachi, Arceus etc) and decides to go on a pokemon journey (since that's the only way an eleven-year-old could travel on his own without supervision) to find a legendary that could help him home.

You can see a more detailed plot (plus a lot of questions) below

Spoiler:
Peter suddenly finds himself in a forest when just seconds ago, he was walking home from school. He panics, of course, runs into a wurmple (not that he knows what it is), trips over rocks etc, and all in all, feels horribly lost and scared. A zigzagoon, curious of the little human acting oddly, comes up to him and gets his attention. Since she's much less frightening than other pokemon could be, Peter hesitantly warms up to her. She helps him find his way towards a city where Peter finds out he's not in his original world.

It takes him time to come to terms with that fact, during which (since people assume the zigzagoon is his) he grows closer to his zigzagoon and reads about pokemon. He finds out about the legendaries and despite the city's gym leader and police etc advising him against it, he decides to go on a pokemon journey to find the legendaries and get home.

The main plot's going to follow Peter as he gathers a team and tries to get home. He'll get friends who'll help him adjust to a pokemon trainer's life (i.e. how to set up a tent, pack necessities, take care of your pokemon), there's going to be conflict with people who were looking for the legendaries for their own reasons, conflict with the legendaries that don't want to be found, and finally he's going to have to make the decision as to whether he actually wants to go home or stay.

So.

I'm a bit worried about his future team: (evolved state when he caught them -> evolution)
Zigzagoon -> Linoone, Swablu -> Altaria, Seedot -> Nuzleaf -> Shiftry, Poochyena -> Mightyena, Combusken -> Blaziken, Crawdaunt, Feebas -> Milotic
Starly -> Staravia -> Staraptor, Drifloon -> Drifblim, Vibrava, Gible -> Gabite -> Garchomp

He's going to lose a couple of course, and he only actually catches three or so via the standard method of throwing a pokeball, so I'm not particularly worried about how he gets them. Mostly. There is the problem of his Zigzagoon just sticking around but I'm pinning that on her personality that makes her naturally curious, and he gets his Starly later on via the 'helps an injured pokemon' method... But I'm mostly worried about whether they're too 'special' (especially the Swablu and Feebas - I'm sort of hoping Swablu aren't that rare?)

Also, I was planning on making him Hoenn Champion ('cause I've got this headcanon that champions have easier access to other regions, so if he's going to look for, say, Arceus, he wants to be sure he doesn't have any trouble looking around in Sinnoh even if he's originally from Hoenn), but somehow from what I've planned out so far, he ends up Champion by the time he's been in the pokemon world for a year - I feel like that's a bit too quick.

Not to mention at that time he's only going to have five pokemon with him. Do you think it's still going to be plausible? (sorry, I feel like I can't tell you which five since losing pokemon feels like an important thing to happen and I don't want to say which or when).

Also, (there are just so many things I'm worried about...) about the Man vs. Man conflict that happens when he meets other people looking for legendaries as well... that ends up with Peter getting involved with gym leaders and a champion personally. Would that be too much for an 11~12 ish kid? It's mostly just the adults asking him what the group was like, what their motives were, and telling him to be careful etc, and nothing like 'help us get rid of Team **' but still.

There's also the problem of him actually finding legendaries when they're, you know, legendary.

He's going to fail to find two, accidentally run into one he wasn't looking for, find one that decides to be mean, and finally finds one that helps him find one of the two he failed to find before. Is that too much good luck?


I've actually planned things out to day 351 which is about when he leaves Hoenn for Sinnoh (that's still only about a third or so of what I want to write, plotwise) but I wanted to check if the idea was alright before planning further.

Any advice would be very much appreciated, thanks :)

I see absolutely nothing wrong with this concept. If you want in-game logic a year sounds fine, although you could always extend it slightly if you want it line up with more real-world realism.

ilikecatsanddogs March 30th, 2019 7:36 PM

I would rather take a realistic approach... though now I'm going to have a bit of trouble with having him train his pokemon without it seeming like unnecessary fillers.

Anyway, thanks for the reply and I'm glad you don't think the concept's fine!

(I've just read the guide on what not to do while writing fanfics (forgot what it was called :() and, I have to admit, I panicked a bit when I saw there was a section on 'having a real-world character drop into the pokemon world. Since, yeah, that's basically what I'm doing, though hopefully in a different manner as to what the writer meant.)

If you're worried about your characters training Pokemon being filler, you can perhaps have each Pokemon get a mini arc of sorts over what they have to overcome. For instance, one Pokemon get anger management issues, another Pokemon trying to learn a new move, etc. The team listed seems fine, though I'm worried how many Pokemon you'll have to juggle there even though you said some will leave at some point.

As for that guide...I'm gonna be honest, that guide is so old and reeks elitism hahaha. The character drop into the Pokemon world maybe done loads of times, but it's all in the execution. If that's what you want to write, go ahead!

Well, Pete does end up with only
Spoiler:
8(5 by the end of Hoenn and an additional 3 from Sinnoh)
so I hope that wouldn't be too much.

A fanfiction Idea Of Mine
 
1 Attachment(s)
So I've written about 100 pages for this bad boy, and I've created a cover art as well. Should I finish it? It's called "Kurt's Untold Story: Beyond the Apricorns" It's about a romance that blossoms between him and a younger "oc" kimono girl. If anyone wants to read what I have, let me know.

Bay April 5th, 2019 10:45 PM

Hi there! So I moved your thread to this one here since I think your post fits here best!

As for your question, I admit I don't read fics focusing on Kurt all that often, but it's still nice to see characters like him get appreciated! One thing I'll ask though, what are the ages of Kurt and the OC in your story? I ask because not everyone are into romances with characters having large age gaps and such.

Bay September 7th, 2019 8:46 PM

Hi there! So I moved your thread from the main fanfic section to this thread as this is more of a plot idea and you offhand mentioned fanfic, so yeah.

I admit, I only skimmed through your idea but not fully mused on it yet, so I don't have time to ask questions or ideas at the moment. I can come back another time to analyze it though!

That's ok, I actually got inspired to write an original story of my own based on my ideas! I just deleted it since I'm moving on to creating my own story within my own universe! Wish me luck!

NikolaP October 26th, 2019 3:58 AM

Well, let's see how this works.

First of all, I've never written fanfics before. I imagined them, perhaps, but I'm very strict with myself and always think things over many times and in depth, and do not work on anything that doesn't hold up to scrutiny as being good and justified.

What I want to write about here is an idea I've had for the last 4 years or so. I judge that it is suitable for a Pokémon fanfic for 3 reasons:

1. Pokémon are essential to it. It needs them specifically to exist and cannot be independent from them.
2. It is highly unlikely anything like it will ever be made as an official Pokémon product.
3. I have hope it would be interesting to Pokémo fans.

So, what is it?

Inspired by the Mystery Dungeon and Poképark series, Donald Duck comics from my childhood, Phineas and Ferb and the Discworld books, I imagined a world populated only by Pokémon, without humans or dungeons. A civilisation both highly derivative and freshly original, made with stories rather than videogames in mind.

It pretty much boils down to Pokémon Zootopia, but I actually thought of it before watching Zootopia.

There would be humour and adventure and mystery and emotion and huge plot twists. There would be many characters to follow and many stories to tell (I have very basic ideas for at least 16).

The idea I have most developed for now as an introduction is a Pokémon train heist story with a dashing swashbuckling hero and kid detectives stopping robbers.

However, work on these things is very slow. I just wanted to hear thoughts on it - would something like that be interesting to you?

This has not seen action in a while, so, pending a refactoring under discussion, I guess I should just as well throw my current plot bunnies in here.

Currently I'm re-outlining a story I had in the plans since 2015. Titled "Interim" (tentatively), it deals with the lives of two already experienced Trainers who go through a small war-like scenario when participating in the challenge of an even more powerful Trainer. To quote from the summary:

Quote:

Ravir and Machalí are renowned and strong Trainers of the region of Suocé, on the run and confronting both evil teams and the League due to a recent crisis. When the Strongest Trainer issues a challenge to the unknown, the two will see themselves immersed in a dangerous puzzle, a sorceress’ ploy and a secret war against the region, earning themselves a new enemy and a new fate.
(For those who have read and commented on my previous works: this could also help debut Terrakion)

I've taken the liberty to attach the current outline. Let's see what comes out from this?

I posted my plan in a different thread, but I'm planning to write a story...
It's following a thief named Idunn who was raised by a Zoroark and has a Zorua brother, taking place in post-B2W2 Unova. When her caretaker is caught by a trainer, she decides now is the time to reveal herself to the world. She steals Pokemon Trainers' Pokemon for the purpose of finding her family. Eventually she meets N, the trainer who caught the Zoroark she was looking for, and they both leave for distant lands.
I don't know what this story would be called but Idunn already has a design, which I can post if you want.
